Small SOTT error needs attention

[Palinurus]

This headline needs two fixes, I think:

Roger Stone sentenced to 40 months, Trump doesn't signal pardon will come soon -- Sott.net

A federal judge on Thursday sentenced President Donald Trump's long-time adviser Roger Stone to three years and four months in prison and said his lies to lawmakers investigating Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election posed a...

Hello.
On SOTT in French, in this article :

NSA, GAFAM et le capitalisme de surveillance -- Sott.net

Accédez à n'importe quel site ou installez n'importe quelle application mobile et l'on vous demandera d'accepter les conditions d'utilisation du site ou de l'appli. Si vous refusez vous n'avez pas l'accès, ou au mieux sous une forme très...

fr.sott.net

there is a problem with a link numbered (4) in a paragraph titled "Shoshana Zuboff et l'âge du capitalisme de surveillance" :
"https://fr.sott.net/article/(4)http...of-surveillance-capitalism-de-shoshana-zuboff"

The beginning (before "https") should be removed.

Thanks for the catch, it's been fixed :)

Many Covid-19 patients are dying from cardiac arrest -- Sott.net

A recent study by Chinese researchers found that as many as one in five COVID-19 patients experienced cardiac damage, heart failure — and, in some instances, death. Out of 416 hospitalized patients, 19 percent showed signs of heart damage. About...

I guess it should be Covid-19 (in title)

Thanks for the heads up. Fixed!

Unless there's an underlying pun I'm not familiar with, the caption under today's Quantum Quirk has a misspelling, I think.

It reads:Daracula's homeand that should beDracula's homeunder normal circumstances.

Hello.

Inthis French translation(2017-07-31)上发布的Pierre's article on frozen mammoths(published on 2017-07-28), at the end, just before the funny picture "Putin did it !", there is this sentence :

Cet article a initialement été publié en anglais le 28 juillet 2017 :Sott.net

(翻译in : "This article was initially published in english on July 28th, 2017")
with awronglink tothis recent articleby Tony Costa.

I wonder how such a link toward such a recent article may appear in an article which is almost 3 years old !

PS : I check the similar links at the end of two other translations of Pierre's articles on Mars water and Venus, they are OK.

Earth seems to be travelling through the debris of an ancient supernovae -- Sott.net

To my knowledge, supernovae is the plural form of supernova.

So the header should either read likean ancient supernovaor elseancient supernovae-- but not a mixture of both.

Something seems to be amiss with the latest video addition at the bottom of the SOTT front page. It's about this one:Objective:Health - ITN: Banning WiFi in Schools? | Flour and Rice Rot Teeth | Prescription Video Games .

Firefox is unable to display the video because of a faulty embedding procedure. It states:

Firefox cannot open this page

To protect your security,www.youtube.comdoes not allow Firefox to display the page if another website embedded it. To view this page, you will need to open it in a new window. More info...

At the more info webpage it reads:

If you see this error, it is usually caused by a misconfigured website that is trying to display another website without the consent of its owner.

Websites can usex-frame optionsor acontent security policyto control if other websites may embed them on their own pages. This is an important security feature to preventclickjacking, which is an attack that allows malicious sites to trick users into clicking links on a site.

To visit a site that has shown this message, you can open the link in a New Tab or New Window in Firefox. Note that in some cases, the embedding page will not work correctly without access to the blocked page. In this case you will need to contact the owner of the broken site for troubleshooting.

I see the same thing on Chrome

Must have just happened. The youtube embeds aren't working in articles either.

[Palinurus]

The youtube embeds aren't working in articles either.

Since it's September 1 now, I suspect that YouTube may have implemented new rules for embedding videos - but that's just my guess.

[Vulcan59]

FWIW, just tried using Brave and Firefox browsers. All working at my end!

I had a look and noticed the link was pointing to the channel and not the actual video, so maybe had something to do with that. Anyway seems to be fixed now as I'm not seeing the error anymore either.
